I made a pie to take to the Wednesday night crowd. We gather for community group, generally a video/DVD Bible study, discussion, prayer, socializing. And of course: eating.
I'd told a friend about the 'mom's majik mox' and she shared a recipe for an 'ice box pie'. It can't really date back to the era of iceboxes, since it has whipped topping in it. But it's good and easy, and suitable for people who (should be) watch sugar intake - just sub. sugar free jello and sugar free whipped topping. I can't put this in the majik mox to send to TN - there is a big problem there with the fact of Jello. And would probably result in the same face you'd see when she put tofu in her mouth.
Lime Pie
Mix all this together and spoon into a graham cracker crust (I found some at the Just-A-Buck!)
1 - 3 oz box of Lime jello
1/4 cup boiling water: dissolve jello in hot water, let cool.
2 cartons lime yogurt (it used to be 8 oz, but now all you can find is 6 oz cups), room temp.
1 8 oz bowl thawed, softened, room temp. whipped topping.
Stir the yogurt into whipped topping, gently folding. Stir in room temp. dissolved jello. Spoon in crust. Put in fridge.
No reason you could not use other flavors - lemon or peach would be good, don't you think?
I put mine in the freezer to get firm quicker, but think it is probably better without being icy/crystals.
